Question
Which of the following hypothetical
viruses could NOT replicate in a host
cell? It assumes that capsid proteins
are encoded in the genome of all
viruses and that, if the virus can
produce mRNA, it will be converted
and the polyprotein processed to
produce all of the virus proteins.
A. The virus has an ssDNA genome
and replicates in the cytoplasm. It
has DŇA and RNA polymerases
packed inside the capsid.
B. The virus has a dsDNA genome
and replicates within the nucleus of
the host cell.
C. The virus has an ssRNA (+)
genome and replicates in the
cytoplasm of the host cell. It has a
viral RNA polymerase packed inside
the capsid.
D. The virus has an ssRNA (-)
genome and replicates in the
cytoplasm of the cell. It has a viral
DNA polymerase packed inside the
capsid.
